Know a college-bound high school student who loves compost? That happy obsession could be worth $1,000 in scholarship funds!
Two $1,000 scholarships will be awarded through the Composting Council Research & Education Foundation (CCREF) to encourage students to follow that crazy-for-compost feeling into science studies in college — and maybe even end up with a job in the compost industry. Submit an essay about your experiences with compost and how it has helped shape your choice of major in college or university.
Application deadline: Monday, January 20, 2014. Get the dirt on this CCREF scholarship by visiting their Sustainable Student Scholarship Award
